Real big difference
I just finished doing the IDM mod. I've done a few mods in the past that didn't show any real difference in power. I can tell a very noticeable difference in the way the truck runs with the IDM mod. I'm not sure how much horsepower or torque was gained, but the take off is much better now that I did this mod. If you havn't done this already take a serious look into doing it.

I've heard talk of MPG dropping with the IDM mod so I never pursued it any farther... any of you guys ponying up to try it please post back with your results if you can do a before/after MPG test.

I used guzzles step by step directions and these directions as well

I'm not sure if it affected the mpg, and it will kinda be hard for me to tell because I don't drive my truck all that much with fuel being so high.
